Sheep, cows and Pillows....................

 Here's the black sheep of the family! John's ewes are lambing so there's lots of baby lambs running around.
 The guys added on to the hoop barn so there's more room for calving heifers.
 The calves have a place to stay in for several days then they get turned out in a smaller pen with a calf shelter to go in if needed.

Pictures from my walk the other day.
 It was a warm day, and the breeze was at my back so it was a nice walk.

 Almost home.
 Lots of snow last week but no wind so that was a good thing.
 Another pocket pillow.
 I made this pillow for the cutest little girl:) Her initials are A L T so I wanted a brand for her I had some ideas but then asked Greg to draw up some and this one is his.

 Here she is! Those cheeks:) I bet they get kissed by the hundreds!

 A few years ago I made this one. Who knows maybe these 2 will meet up someday!

This post is for Carrie...........

 SURPRISE I finished your book!! I decided it was going to be the first book I read this year.
 All 897 pages! Carrie was right it was a good book. I gave it to Kathy she had heard about it and wanted to read it. She'll have it done in days instead of years. I think Carrie was in college when she read it in the 90s:) I have had it a long time and looked at it in the bookcase and said to myself you should read this book year after year.  Finally I did it:)
 First time I've seen the cat sitting up there. It's been a cold winter I don't know how they stay alive!
 We went to Rapid City to the stock show just a quick trip but had fun with friends. A good rodeo and fun time playing cards. This is the only picture I took. It's Bear Butte.
A scrap project I've been working on so far 125 book marks.....................JMF
